Shot for just $5,000, "Broken Allegiance" has since become one of the most popular online "fan films" and since 2002 has been downloaded a staggering 1.5 million times. Even today this non-profit film still averages more than 1,000 downloads per month.

Now Nick has focused his directing skills and love for sci-fi on an original series to be distributed online called "Welcome to the Cosmos".
